"Not really. Before 1995 there was a Ka-25Ts AWACS helos in service, and now there is Ka-27RLD.
Sovremenny can carry both types, but Chinese simply doesn't have them."
China doesn't have them, and Russia doesn't embark them aboard Sov's.'
In other words, they don't have the capability because the neccesary aircraft is either not embarked by choice or neccesity.
Anyway you slice it, the Sov's organic OTH capability cannot take advantadge of Sunburn's maximum potential.
"Depends on where chinese will be firing from. China have a long coast line."
Even IF China could fire ICBM's at Taiwan, why would they? Those are for deterring the US/Russia, and the Chicoms have very few ICBM's in their inventory.
"Those reports were never confirmed."
They were never refuted either. For all any of us know, china has ONE SSBN, and it's got a US SSN on it's six at all times anyway.
